Chapter 267 Refuge
Chen Ke didn't think that the crystal gun just now could kill the other party, and the speed that the other party had just shown was really eye-opening. That was definitely not the speed that normal people had.
With just half a breath, the man could immediately disappear from Chen Ke's eyes and quickly go around to his side. He could also slam his head with the butt at the same time.
This is equivalent to moving the position in less than a second and completing an attack. Chen Ke is a professional killer at least, and he can't react to this kind of action.
Think about it carefully, from time to time travel to this world, the knowledge about spiritual energy that Chen Ke has learned and exposed to is still very simple. What the mysterious man showed in just a short moment brought a huge impact on Chen Ke.
In Chen Ke's understanding of psychic energy so far, there are only diamonds that can summon ancient cold weapons and secret stones that can learn skills. Moreover, there are only two types of psychic people he knows.
One type is people like Diana and Parker. They do have different spiritual power, but if they don’t use the Holy Diamond, they will not be able to detect the differences between the other party.
What's even more serious is that the spiritual power of people like them is not permanent, and they need to perform so-called "drainage" regularly to clear it, as if they are afraid that their bodies will not be able to bear it.
In the 2006 timeline, Diana, as a CPA agent, was not as good as Chen Ke after drainage... But when she was not drained, Chen Ke guessed that her combat effectiveness would not be much worse than Ying Baiyi.
In other words, how strong their combat effectiveness is depends on what equipment and skills the Administration will equip them with, and they have no control over their strength.
The other type is Badr and Yasra, who... no, they have completely turned into inhuman monsters, and in exchange for complete control of power.
But isn’t this a bit too much? Someone really gives up the qualification to be a human being in order to seek the most strength?
And they do not seem to require the use of holy diamonds, but instead gather a lot of power on the body and use it at will.
Chen Ke did not envy them, it was not power, but a curse.
The mysterious man I met just now can be said to be the third type of psychic man that Chen Ke encountered. He is equipped with the next generation of high-tech armor. Although he is not as sci-fi as Iron Man, he is also very avant-garde. His holy object is actually a gun.
Until now, Chen Ke was not sure whether the gun was a holy object, because as far as Chen Ke’s own experience of using holy objects was concerned, summoning them did not require special gestures. As long as the diamonds were on his body, you could summon them immediately after thinking about it.
But that person obviously needs to take time to slowly pull the gun out of his palm, so it is not yet clear whether that thing is a holy object. Maybe the other party just wanted to pretend to be a pussy. In any case, Chen Ke was very glad that he didn't give him a chance to shoot just now.
In addition to this, what the man said just now also made him very concerned about.
"In your time, the utilization of psychic energy is still at its most initial stage. Ignorance brings fearlessness, and fearlessness leads to disasters. This is why we must prevent you from completing the cycle."
The initial stage of using psychic energy... This made Chen Ke suddenly remember another holy object, the candlestick that can dispel illusions. Because Chen Ke's IQ is not enough, he can still use it as a flashlight...
Combined with the man's strange speed, Chen Ke couldn't help but guess, is it that psychic energy can strengthen all aspects of human beings?
If so, then, will it turn people into deformities like Asra?
This is not clear, because the other party did not take off his helmet, Chen Ke could not tell whether the other party was like the despicable brother and still maintained a normal human form.
And when Chen Ke clearly told Brother Displeased that he had a way to take him out of the great void, he said that he did not come from his time...
This sentence is very interesting.
Even if Brother Disheart comes from a more distant future, going back to 2009 is more reliable than staying in the Great Void?
But he refused.
This means that "his time" and time that Chen Ke can understand are two different things. According to what that person said, "Ignorance brings fearlessness...to prevent you from completing the cycle...", I am afraid that these two goods are not just from the future.
To be honest, although Chen Ke has traveled through time many times, he still has no idea about time. In his understanding, the world is three-dimensional. There was a saying before that time is the fourth dimension, but it was quickly overturned.
Time is time, it is not linked to dimensions, but is more like a unit of measurement. It can even be said that time is a concept created by people, and the universe does not have time.
Time is just the way humans know the universe.
Chen Ke walked through the alley and looked back from time to time. Although he did not find the outline of the mysterious man within the spiritual vision, he still did not dare to stop.
The further you run, the better. Chen Ke only has this idea. Now he can't get any advantage when fighting with him. The opponent's ability to move far exceeds his own. He is still using a gun and can only be killed by the front.
“+30 hours”
“+30 hours”
“+30 hours”
“+30 hours”
...
Just as Chen Ke was alert behind him, a series of life-span increases prompted a different twitch in the corners of his eyes.
Chen Ke stood firm and saw three silver knights standing in the middle on the street in front of him, surrounded by the bodies of dozens of soldiers.
They looked at themselves, protected their shields on their chests, and were slowly walking towards Chen Ke.
"Three..." Chen Ke's muscles were tense, ready to blow them away with his psychic burst.
"Wait... it's people from the city." A silver knight suddenly spoke.
The murderous aura is gone.
"Hey, why don't you go to the palace to take refuge?" asked the Silver Knight.
"I'm lost..." Chen Ke replied, hiding the gun in his hand into his wide sleeve.
"Walk along Main Street and join the refugee team, the guards will take you to the palace shelter, move forward quickly, citizens." Another Silver Knight said.
Chen Ke nodded and ran in the direction the Silver Knight said.
"What should I do if it's a spy?" After Chen Ke left, one of the Silver Knights suddenly asked.
"There are all people from the Knights of Vanhed in the palace, and even if they are spies, they can't survive tonight." Another Silver Knight said coldly.
Chen Ke quickly found the refugee team that the Silver Knights mentioned. He put on his hood and mingled in, trying to keep a distance from the soldiers on the periphery.
Maybe it was because the sky was combined with the firelight that made people unable to see their faces clearly, or maybe it was because the number of refugees was too large that the soldiers could not investigate one by one. In short, Chen Ke miraculously mingled into the open space of the castle abbey.
A large group of refugees sat on the lawn, and there was a desperate sound of war outside the wall. The end of the medieval siege was the battle for the acropolis. When the palace was completely captured, the country was declared destroyed.
Chen Ke glanced at the spiritual vision and estimated the number of refugees, which was estimated to be as many as thousands. A large number of silver knights stood in the inner courtyard, guarding the entrances and exits.
Chen Ke sat in place, without any plans for the time being, and wanted to see how Vanhede's ruling class would deal with it.
Perhaps, the royal family has escaped from the secret passage? But judging from the density of the arrangements of the silver knights in the city, it does not look like the king has escaped.
Moreover, Chen Ke was very concerned about who threw the thunder that slashed the stone tool outside the city.
The civilians around were crying quietly, and even if they didn't cry, they were still sighing. After all, their belongings were burned down, and no one would be in a good mood.
Chen Ke looked up at the sky. The dark sky was slightly lighter in color, and the clouds that were burned red by the fire slowly dissipated. The moon was hanging in the west at this time.
